well its not really that big of a deal NOT having games... ubuntu is very
powerful and quick.... with 2 AMD turion 64 processors and 160 GB hard drve
vista takes 2 mintues just to load up..... not counting all the pain in the
butt popups of needing to crap my computer up with  norton and that
somethings not working blah blah blah...
now ubuntu may be harder to get fully configured after installation (and
have a rough time with installation) once its loaded up its almost instant
:P
so if your having gamming trouble.. i recommend dual OS
anyways more on topic you will probably have to install a driver... also
wait for gusty's clean install and try it then... you should be fine
